The All Glory Project pays tribute to the American Legion, who has set up the Legacy Scholarship Fund to support the families and children of our fallen warriors. This charitable scholarship program helps ensure higher education is a possibility for children whose parents lost their lives while on duty since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. The fund has been building steadily toward its goal of $20 million while at the same time issuing scholarships to qualified young people who have lost parents in the war. Individual donations are commonly made to the fund, but the major event of the year is The American Legion Legacy Run, a motorcycle trek that crosses numerous states between Indianapolis and National Convention city.

A shout out to my dad, Robert, who fought in Vietnam, 1969-71. It wasn't his choice to go, but he is proud to have served, and so I'm proud of him. Love ya, Dad!

My son joined the army at 17. It was against everything in my soul to give up my son. He was just a child himself, but when he explained his reasoning for wanting to go, I realized his reasoning was very grown up. I tearfully signed the papers realizing I may never see him again. He turned 18 on his first tour to Afghanistan. After 2 tours in Afghanistan, a lot of prayer, and many troubled times, he made it home whole as can be expected from such a war. I'm proud of my son and his decision to fight for his country. He's my hero. War isn't just our young men and women fighting a war, its also the sacrifice parents make knowing their children are in harms way.

I am proud to be the mother in law of a vet. He served his country proudly in Iraq. It's a shame how difficult it is for the vets to get health care, etc. when they return home. It is the least we can do for them.

Tribute - The statue you see on our site is Sculptor Douwe Blumberg’s “De Oppresso Liber” a monument to our Veterans that currently resides in the West St. lobby gallery of One World Trade Center, looking over Ground Zero.
